teedoff27 teedoff27 Senior Member Registered: 10/11/11 Posts: 1681 Loc: S2Hphoto	The finished product Out of the total cost of one dinner roughly $18 worth of ingredients I get the roast chicken dinner, chicken noodle soup with tuna fish sandwiches dinner, and left over chicken for sandwiches for lunches $\:\)$ I also made the 2 pans of Ziti. I wanted the flavors to meld overnight before cooking/delivery. Cooking it yesterday and reheating today would of made it too dry IMO _________________________ Spiritual people INSPIRE me Religious people FRIGHTEN me

VM Smith VM Smith Diamond Member Registered: 11/28/05 Posts: 34294 Loc: Reality	In order of preference: donated chocolate purchased chocolate stolen chocolate chocolate picked up off the sidewalk no chocolate at all A good, short, and comprehensive article, MRYW, although you're probably cognizant of the health benefits of chocolate. I like pure (as opposed to Nestle's Quick, FI) hot cocoa, no sugar, and made with half and half, for the taste, health benefits/energy/nutrition, and lengthy appetite suppression afforded by healthy, and necessary, saturated fats: http://www.marksdailyapple.com/why-you-should-eat-and-drink-high-cacao-dark-chocolate/#axzz1oXaIO0JR _________________________ The evils of tyranny are rarely seen but by him who resists it.

MeRightYouWrong MeRightYouWrong Senior Member Registered: 06/29/11 Posts: 1478 Loc: Mountain of Truth	The only chocolate I eat is dark with at least 80% cocoa, but preferably 85% or 90%. I've seen some dark chocolates, like Dove, that still contain sugar as the main ingredient. It didn't list the cocoa content but I'd guess it's the bare minimum as required to be called "dark". My rule of thumb is if it isn't bitter it's not real "dark".

VM Smith VM Smith Diamond Member Registered: 11/28/05 Posts: 34294 Loc: Reality	That's why I like cocoa, as opposed to the adulterated mixes like "Quick"; it's 100% cocoa. With pure cocoa powder, you're not paying for fillers such as milk powder and sugar, so it's the best bang for the buck, chocolate-wise. I can add that stuff myself, if desired. I've come to enjoy the bitterness of the straight, non-sweetened cocoa, same as I like my black coffee. And, by using half and half, rather than milk, I'm getting less lactose (milk sugar, which milk has quite a bit of), too. You want the regular stuff (on top), rather than the Dutch-processed, akalized type on the bottom, according to Sisson (more flavanols): http://www.hersheys.com/recipes/productsforcategory.aspx?cid=5&url=Cocoa _________________________ The evils of tyranny are rarely seen but by him who resists it.
